This application claims benefit of Chinese Patent Application No. CN 201921432512.X, filed Aug. 30, 2019.
The above applications and all patents, patent applications, articles, books, specifications, other publications, documents, and things referenced herein are hereby incorporated herein in their entirety for all purposes. To the extent of any inconsistency or conflict in the definition or use of a term between any of the incorporated publications, documents, or things and the text of the present document, the definition or use of the term in the present document shall prevail.
The present invention relates to a spray component, and more particularly to a spray nozzle.
As we all know, toy water guns are toys that children often play in the summer. There are many kinds of children's toy water guns on the market, and the structures are different. At present, most of the existing toy water guns can only stream water, the ejected water flow is columnar. In order to improve the fun and appeal of toy water gun, the water outlet of the toy water gun can be installed with a spray nozzle, so that the water flow ejected by the toy water gun is in spray pattern. However, most of the spray nozzles on the market presently have the following defects: the structure is complicated and the production cost is high; the sprayed water mist covers a small area and is uneven, and the spray effect is so-so.
One technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a spray nozzle, water mist sprayed by the spray nozzle is uniform, covers a large area and the spray effect is good. The technical solutions adopted are as follows:
One embodiment of a spray nozzle comprises:
an outer tube, the outer tube is disposed along front and rear directions;
an inner tube, the inner tube is disposed in a cavity of the outer tube, and a front end of the inner tube protrudes from a front end opening of the outer tube; and
a sleeve, the sleeve is mounted on an outer side of the outer tube;
a partition plate is disposed in a cavity of the inner tube, the partition plate and an inner wall of the front end of the inner tube together encircle to form an opened diversion groove;
a groove wall of the opened diversion groove is disposed with a plurality of notches;
an outer side surface of the inner tube is disposed with a plurality of guide vanes arranged along a circumferential direction of the inner tube;
an outer edge of each of the guide vanes contacts and fits with an inner side surface of the outer tube;
a space between the outer tube and the inner tube is divided by each of the guide vanes into a plurality of diversion cavities along front and rear directions, each of the diversion cavities respectively communicates with a cavity of the opened diversion groove through the corresponding notch;
an inner side surface of the sleeve makes sealing contact with an outer side surface of the outer tube;
a front end of the sleeve is provided with a sealing plate; and
a rear side surface of the sealing plate contacts and fits with a groove opening edge of the opened diversion groove, the sealing plate is provided with a water jet hole, and the water jet hole communicates with the groove opening of the opened diversion groove.
In one embodiment of the above-mentioned spray nozzle, a rear end opening of the outer tube forms a water inlet of the spray nozzle, and the water jet hole on the sealing plate forms a water outlet of the spray nozzle.
When in use, one embodiment of the spray nozzle can be installed on a water outlet pipe of a toy water gun, and the rear end of the outer tube communicates with a cavity of the water outlet pipe. When the toy water gun transports water to the spray nozzle through the water outlet pipe, the water transported by the toy water gun enters each of the diversion cavities through the water outlet pipe and the rear end opening of the outer tube, and then enters the opened diversion groove from the corresponding notches respectively to form a plurality of water currents with different flow directions, and the water currents are directly sprayed through the water jet hole on the sealing plate. Thereby effectively increasing a chance of collision between the water currents and an inner wall of the water jet hole. After the water currents with different flow directions collide with the inner wall of the water jet hole, the water currents can be uniformly sprayed around through the water jet hole to realize the spray effect, the sprayed water mist is uniform and covers a large area, and the spray effect is good.
In one embodiment, a sealing ring is fixedly mounted on the outer side surface of the outer tube, and the outer side surface of the outer tube makes sealing contact with the inner side surface of the sleeve through the sealing ring.
In one embodiment, a cross-sectional area of a front end opening of the water jet hole gradually increases from rear to front. Such an adopted structure is capable of preventing the inner wall of the front end of the water jet hole from hindering spraying of the water mist to the surrounding, further ensuring that the sprayed water mist is uniform and covers a large area, and the spray effect is good.
In one embodiment, the sleeve and the outer tube are detachably connected, the sleeve and the outer tube are firmly combined with each other by connection, and the detachable connection facilitates installation and detachment of the spray nozzle.
In one embodiment, the outer side surface of the rear end of the outer tube is provided with an external thread, and the inner side surface of a rear end of the sleeve is provided with an internal thread to match with the external thread on the rear end of the outer tube. The internal thread on the sleeve is embedded in the external thread on the outer tube or separated from the external thread on the outer tube by rotating the sleeve to achieve installing or disassembling the sleeve, and the operation is simple and convenient.
Front and rear mentioned in this specification respectively refer to: a direction of transporting water along the water outlet pipe of the toy water gun to the spray nozzle, with the rear referring to the portion where the water first arrives, and with the front referring to the portion where the water finally arrives.
Through the cooperation between the sleeve, the outer tube and the inner tube, the spray nozzle of the present invention not only has a simple structure, but also reduces the production cost, and is capable of making the sprayed water mist uniform with a large area covered, and the spray effect is good.
As shown in
In this embodiment, a sealing ring 4 is fixedly mounted on the outer side surface of the outer tube 1, and the outer side surface of the outer tube 1 makes sealing contact with the inner side surface of the sleeve 3 through the sealing ring 4.
In this embodiment, a cross-sectional area of a front end opening of the water jet hole 311 gradually increases from rear to front.
In this embodiment, the outer side surface of the rear end of the outer tube 1 is provided with an external thread 11, and the inner side surface of a rear end of the sleeve 3 is provided with an internal thread 32 to match with the external thread 11.
The following briefly describes the working principle of one embodiment of the spray nozzle:
When in use, one embodiment of the outer tube 1 of the spray nozzle can be installed on a front end of a water outlet pipe 5 of a toy water gun. When the toy water gun transports water to the spray nozzle through the water outlet pipe 5, the water transported by the toy water gun enters each of the diversion cavities 231 through the water outlet pipe 5 and a rear end opening of the outer tube 1, and then enters into the opened diversion groove 22 from the corresponding notches 221 respectively to form a plurality of water currents with different flow directions, and the water currents are directly sprayed through the water jet hole 311 on the sealing plate 31. After the water currents with different flow directions collide with the inner wall of the water jet hole 311, the water currents can be uniformly sprayed around through the water jet hole 311 to realize the spray effect.
In addition, it should be explained that each of the part names of the specific embodiments described in the specification can be named differently, equivalent or simple changes made according to the structures, features and principles described in the concept of the present invention still fall within the scope covered by the technical solutions of the present invention.
